4HCI + O2 = 2H2O + Cl2 (2 points)
Add more H2O
Add more O2
Remove H20

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The reaction will proceed backward, shifting the equilibrium position to the left.

2. The reaction will proceed forward, shifting the equilibrium position to the right.

3. Either add more of the products ( H2O or Cl2) or remove the reactant (HCl or O2)
